the trees, delighted that spring had finally arrived. The tulips were bright slashes of color like a child's crayon drawing.

B. The beauty of nature's delicious treat. A metaphor is a representation or a comparison of things. Here when the poet says he drank the beauty of nature, he does not mean it literally but only metaphorically.
